要旨

Introduction:

Inguinal lymphadenectomy is an important procedure in the treatment of various stage III malignancies and is notorious for postoperative complications, such as surgical site infections, seroma formation, skin flap necrosis, and wound breakdown. This study aims to investigate complication rates after conventional inguinal lymphadenectomy (CIL) and videoscopic inguinal lymphadenectomy (VIL) and to identify potential solutions to decrease complication rates.

Methods:

This was a single-center retrospective cohort study comparing CIL with VIL. Primary outcomes were the incidence of surgical complications, severity of surgical complications, readmissions, and surgical reinterventions. Additionally, drain use, flap fixation, antibiotics, unplanned visits, and oncological outcome were compared.

Results:

Between 2010 and 2024, 30 patients underwent CIL and 25 patients underwent VIL. The median operating time for CIL was 100 minutes (interquartile range [IQR] 88-119) compared with 120 minutes (IQR 105-139) for VIL (p = 0.017). The median duration of follow-up for patients in this cohort was 2.2 years (IQR 0.7-5.1). A total of 25 patients (83%) in the CIL group had at least one wound complication, compared with 13 (54%) in the VIL group (p = 0.020). Reinterventions in the first 30 postoperative days were performed in 12 patients (40%) after CIL, compared with none (0%) after VIL (p < 0.001). Disease-specific survival was not significantly different between procedures (p = 0.940).

Conclusions:

VIL reduced the rate of wound complications, severity of complications, and early surgical reinterventions compared with CIL but prolonged surgery time. The videoscopic procedure seems superior and offers a transformative approach that can be incorporated into contemporary surgical practice.

Observational Studies

Observational Studies

Observational studies are a type of analytical study where researchers observe events without any interventions. In other words, the researcher does not influence the response variable or the experiment's outcome.
There are three types of observational studies – Prospective, retrospective, and cross-sectional.
Prospective Study
Prospective studies, also known as longitudinal or cohort studies, are carried out by collecting future data from groups sharing similar characteristics. One...

Sign Convention

Sign Convention

When analyzing a beam subjected to various loads, it is crucial to understand the internal forces and moments generated within the structure. These internal forces can be broadly classified into normal forces, shear forces, and bending moments. To determine these forces and moments, we use the method of sections and apply a specific sign convention based on their direction and the side of the section being analyzed.
The normal force acts perpendicular to the beam's cross-section and can...

Naturalistic Observations

Naturalistic Observations

If you want to understand how behavior occurs, one of the best ways to gain information is to simply observe the behavior in its natural context. However, people might change their behavior in unexpected ways if they know they are being observed. How do researchers obtain accurate information when people tend to hide their natural behavior? As an example, imagine that your professor asks everyone in your class to raise their hand if they always wash their hands after using the restroom. Chances...

Enolate Mechanism Conventions

Enolate Mechanism Conventions

When a carbonyl compound is treated with a strong base, the α position gets deprotonated to give a resonance-stabilized intermediate called an enolate. Enolates are ambident nucleophiles because they possess two nucleophilic sites that can attack an electrophile owing to the delocalization of the negative charge between the α carbon and oxygen atoms. When the oxygen atom attacks an electrophile, it is called O-attack, whereas electrophilic attack via the α carbon is known as...

Actor-Observer Effect

Actor-Observer Effect

The actor-observer effect, a cognitive bias closely linked to the fundamental attribution error, refers to the tendency for individuals to attribute their behavior to external, situational factors while explaining others’ behavior in terms of internal, dispositional traits. This asymmetry in attribution significantly influences social perception and judgment.Cognitive Mechanisms Behind the EffectTwo primary psychological mechanisms contribute to the actor-observer effect: differences in...

Observational Learning

Observational Learning

Albert Bandura's observational learning, also known as imitation or modeling, occurs when a person observes and imitates another's behavior. It is a quicker process than operant conditioning. A well-known example is the Bobo doll study, where children who saw an adult acting aggressively towards the doll were more likely to act aggressively when left alone, compared to those who observed a nonaggressive adult. Many psychologists view observational learning as a form of latent learning...
